I dance. A lot. I work grief and sadness out of my body when I dance, and I bring in joy and rhythm.

I would be a very sad person if I didn't have dance in my life. However I can, whatever I do, I just feel a lot of joy. Even if I am sad, if you take me to a rehearsal hall, I will automatically become happy.

I always thought the saddest feeling in life is when you're dancing in a really joyful way and then you hit your head on something.

When sadness happens in the middle of work, I separate my personal grief from my train of thought.

I want to be happy, to look back and feel I danced well at the end of my career and didn't dwindle off. It would be too sad.

When I dance, I forget everything else and just feel completely happy.

If you have a little sensibility or a heart, you have all the reason to be depressed once in a while. But the depression is like a motor for creation. I need a little bit of depression, a bit of acid in my stomach, to be able to create. When I'm happy, I just want to dance.

I could work out a lot of my emotions by going to class and dancing.

I know I always say my occupation is not dancing, but dancing is in my heart, dancing makes me feel good.

I find that I put my body in my work when I am at a particularly difficult or joyous point because I want to feel that moment.
